Source for miscellanious Domed Bolts

Post by ModelTWoods » Fri Oct 22, 2021 11:58 am

Other than cylinder head DOMED BOLTS, does anyone know of a source for misc. sized domed bolts, like the ones supplied with Stromberg carburetors to mount them to the intake manifold? I have a Stromberg M-1 carb that didn't come with the bolts and they look to be smaller in diameter than the bolts furnished with an OF. I haven't checked with McMaster-Carr, but I doubt they have any.

If you can't find them, I use Allan socket head bolts to mount my carbs.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

If Hank does not have them, you'll want to consider something else, as they are a custom fabrication these days...not a stock part

ring gear bolts. Period correct, tall head. Safety wire for a cool detail. Can weld the holes up & round the heads also.

This bolt sounds like the same hardware to hold the carburator on a harley knucklehead. 5/16 nc, slight round head, slot. Colony mfg.

Try www.McMaster.com. Enter. “Dome-head bolts” (don’t forget the dash). They might have something you can use or give you ideas on something else that might work. Jim Patrick
